Who We Are:

We are ordinary people, but we live for an extraordinary God. You won’t find noses in the air here (Gal. 6:14–16). We are a diverse family, composed of people from various backgrounds, all striving to walk with Jesus (Rev. 5:9-10). Often that means we are supporting each other, at times that means we are seeking support (Rom.12:15), but it never means shame for needing help.

We believe God gave the world Jesus because we all need saved from sin and brokenness. That means we are all equal at the foot of His cross (2 Cor. 5:19). If you need some help, you will find it here.

The Church is designed by God, but made by us. So, we have one simple goal that affects everything we do here at Burlington - be the church that God designed (Eph. 3:10). That means we don’t come to church on Sunday, per se, rather, we live as the church every day of the week. Rather than fitting church into our lives, our lives are transformed by God’s Spirit because we are the church. This was always God’s intention (1 Pet. 2:4–5; Eph. 2:20–22; Matt. 6:10).

When You Visit:

when you visit with us, here is what we hope you’ll find:

  • Firstly, a family of faith living in unity to glorify God (Rom. 12:4–5).

  • Since faith comes by hearing God’s word (Rom. 10:17), you will find that we only preach and teach God’s word.

  • In fact, this is why we have no denominational affiliation. We believe God’s word alone is sufficient in power and instruction to make Christians (Rom. 1:16).

  • So, you won’t find creeds, catechisms, or conventions here. We combine, teach, and follow the precepts of the New Testament to the best of our ability (2 Tim. 3:16–17). This includes belief (Acts 10:43), repentance (Acts 17:30-31), confession (Rom. 10:10), baptism (Acts 2:38, 22:16; 1 Pet. 3:21), and living faithfully (Rev. 2:10), etc.

  • We also worship in a N.T. way. This was never designed to be entertaining for us, but to be pleasing to God (Acts 2:42, 20:7; Eph. 5:19; Col. 3:16).

  • This is also why we call ourselves the “church of Christ” (Rom 16:16). It is not really a name, but a description.

  • Most of all, we hope that when you visit, you will find followers of Jesus who desire to obey God and love one another (John 13:34-35).
